How we rank

Environment
NZ cracks the top 10 most wasteful, natural-resource depleting countries worldwide according to a dodgy survey by green-weirdo outfit, WWF. We came 9th. Go, Kiwis! So much for the Clean Green thing. Australia came #6. Bloody Ozzies - they beat us at everything.

Media
NZ's Press Freedom has fallen to 19th equal according to hand-wringing crackpots, Reporters without Borders. Kiwi journalists do enjoy abundant freedom. Freedom from fact-checking, from dispassionate observation, from balanced reporting, from conservative views, from professional standards and from credibility.
